Cast Down

Concern over Red's Removal

New 11 Aug 2021 Asked by maddieandherboobs 44 Comments

Hi Mark! Black has been getting more and stronger removal at lower CMC (first Heartless Act and now Infernal Grasp, neither of which have the risk of being dead cards that things like Cast Down did). I have concerns that Red's removal is struggling to keep up, since it's no longer noticeably more efficient at removing small creatures while still being unable to remove larger creatures without using lots of mana and multiple cards. Is this a concern shared by WotC?


Black is supposed to be better at creature removal than red.
